Whiting true blue deformity

[NoviceSebastopol2024]

I have a 3 week old Whiting true blue that I bought from Mcmurray hatchery.
Her wings feather curl towards her head. She has stay small and have not grown anything but her flight feathers. I am assuming that is what they're, but I am new to this all.
She is feisty and has the mind of an older chick. But I added in a picture of one of my 2 week old chick(her company buddy)for comparison.
I have been feeding her cooked egg yolk for 2 days now. I was planning to do it for a week and put her back with the others. I read that it could help boost her festher growth, but I could be wrong.
Please give me any advice as this is my first year raising chicks. Should I keep her or is it better to kill her. Will she be okay or is the wing deformity too much? Have you seen this deformity before? If so, how do they look now? Is feeding her the cooked egg yolk a bad idea?

She appears to have a frizzle gene which is a mutation. No need to kill her in fact the frizzle mutation is somewhat of a designer item amongst Hatcheries.

Not a deformity, it's a feather Mutation called Frizzle.

I know killing sounds harsh, but thank you! Gives me some piece of mind!

Are you sure it’s a whiting true blue? It looks a little different.

I see no reason to cull her, she should live a long and happy life!

To be honest, all of the whiting true blues look different. I will say that I received a free random chick with my order and still never figured out which one it was. This one is probably it, if it has frizzle then I am assuming? So then I really have no idea what kind of chick this is. I'll show you photos of some of my other whiting true blue chicks. I took photos of every single one a while back. The first photo is how big they're now. Which is why I was concerned how small this one is and not growing. Trying to figure out which one was the random chick.

Chick “N” is a cute one.‘I would say the frizzle was the free chick. It’s beak, head, pattern, eyes, and feathers look different to me than the whitings.

The frizzle could be a bantam.
